Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
Your truck is getting some killer parts! Congrats! I can't believe one guy flipped about a dash bezel that houses 2012 era gauges. Era correct? They laid frame in hay fields back in the day, not on the streets yo! Keep up the great work!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
Sometimes, well more than sometimes I wish I lived out west to see some of your guy's trucks. There are plenty of trucks in Ohio but not like out west. Your thread is great. The truck is great. I bet you can't wait until this one is featured in a magazine or two.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
i hope the balast doesnt get so hot it will melt the ziptie , not sure how hot those things get the plate will prolly act as a heatsoak anyway
the aftermarket xenon ones get pretty hot , they allso burn through when you start the car with the lights on , sumtin to do with a temporary drop in volts

Hi Mike - The truck is looking awesome! I also like zip ties and seen some stailess steel ones at Harbor Freight the other day. Keep up the good work. Wayne

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
You're not in a hurry are you, it's only been nine years! I say screws, but that plate you're using is pretty thin to be tapping threads. Maybe some little nuts and bolts? Please, not the ty-wraps! All them little bits are looking sexy. How close are you to that bedwood!!!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
The issue is clearance on the back side of the plate, I have to keep this low profile enough that my front panel will still go on without touching it, it will all be hidden by trim panels .

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
maibe you can weld on small nuts or a small bolt/little length of treaded rod on the side where the devices will sit and mount them a little of the plate that way nothing sticks out the back , it might be a bit hard to keep the plate level and not have it warping on the visible side though.
